Brandolia Platform Help
Brandolia (brandolia.io, app at app.brandolia.io) is a budget freemium AI brand-identity generator:
you enter a company name + sector and it produces a full brand system in about a minute — a logo and
variations, a color palette, typography, a slogan, and a brand book — which you then refine with
its "Oscar" AI assistant in an in-browser editor. Beyond the logo it adds two more modules: an AI website
builder (SEO-ready, responsive, with hosting) and a marketing-visual generator (Instagram posts, ads,
banners, flyers, business cards, mockups). It's the branding/logo step for founders, indie makers,
e-commerce sellers, and creators — a budget peer of Looka / LogoAI / Zoviz / Brandmark / Hatchful / Mojomox.
Two facts frame every answer: (1) it's freemium and token-based — generating/previewing is free, but the
free tier CANNOT download; exporting files spends tokens on a paid tier; and (2) it is UI-only — there
is NO public API (see Step 4). Treat all pricing, token, and file-format details as best-effort from research
— confirm live at brandolia.io.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated platform knowledge.
Ask only what you can't infer:
What do you want from Brandolia?
A) Generate/refine a logo or brand system (name, sector, colors, typography, the "Oscar" editor)
B) Understand pricing / tokens — what a token buys, why the free tier can't download, which tier to pick
C) Understand the download — what file formats you get, whether you get vector/SVG (see Step 4)
D) Use the website builder or marketing-visual generator (posts, ads, flyers, business cards)
E) Integrate or automate ("API" / bulk generation — see Step 4)
What will the logo be used for — digital/social, or print/large-format? This decides whether Brandolia's
export is enough or you need a peer with confirmed vector output (see Step 4).
Skip-ahead: a name (not a logo) → ; the validate-before-building or a branding-tool
comparison → ; wider social/marketing creative at scale → — route in Step 2.

Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the user's question is about…
Route to
Generating the business name itself (not the logo)
/sales-namelix {question}
The validate-before-building method, or comparing branding/logo tools across the market
/sales-idea-validation {question}
Needing a peer with confirmed vector / print-scalable output or a one-time-purchase option
/sales-mojomox {question} or /sales-logoai {question}
Building the wider social/marketing creative or a design system at scale
/sales-canva {question}
When routing, give the exact command: "This is a {domain} question — run: /sales-namelix {original question}"
Otherwise, answer Brandolia-specific questions using Step 3.
Step 3 — Brandolia platform reference
Read references/platform-guide.md for the full reference — the three modules (Brand Identity Studio, AI
Website Builder, Marketing Visual Generator) and each one's automation tag; the generate → refine with Oscar →
pay-with-tokens-to-download workflow; the freemium/token model (free tier = preview only, no download; paid
tiers spend tokens to export) and the best-effort pricing table; what is known vs unverified about
download formats (whether vector/SVG is available); the commercial-ownership question and its trademark
limits; and the no-public-API reality (why generation can't be scripted and what to use instead).
Answer using only the relevant section — don't dump the full reference.
Step 4 — Actionable guidance
It's freemium and token-based — and the free tier CANNOT download. Generating and previewing a brand is
free, but on the free tier you can't export the files — downloading is gated to paid tiers, and each
export/action spends tokens (reported allowances: Free 3, Basic 25, Standard 50, Premium
100). Set that expectation up front: free to generate and preview, pay to download.Flag all of this
as best-effort and tell the user to confirm current tiers, prices, and token mechanics at brandolia.io — an
indie tool that changes often. What one token buys and whether tokens reset monthly or roll over is not
documented publicly — don't assert it; tell the user to confirm.
Don't claim a download format you haven't verified — this is the cluster's key differentiator. Brandolia
advertises "downloadable branding kits," but which file formats it exports (PNG/JPG vs vector SVG/PDF/EPS) is
not documented publicly. Do not promise SVG/vector, and do not assume PNG-only. If the user needs a
guaranteed scalable vector logo (print, signage, apparel, large-format), tell them to either verify
Brandolia's export on the live site first, or use a peer with confirmed vector output
(/sales-mojomox, /sales-logoai, /sales-logomaster, /sales-zoviz, /sales-brandmark) rather than betting
a print job on an unverified export.
It's more than a logo maker — but the extra modules share the token model. The AI website builder
(SEO-ready, responsive, hosted — free hosting is a Premium perk) and the marketing-visual generator (IG
posts, ads, banners, flyers, business cards, mockups) run off the same token budget as the logo. If someone
plans to generate many assets, the token allowance — not a per-asset price — is the real constraint; pick the
tier by how many exports/actions they need.
"Oscar" is the refinement step, not a separate product. After the first generation, Oscar is the in-editor
AI assistant that enhances/modernizes/perfects the logo. Iteration happens by conversing with Oscar and
editing — set the expectation that the first output is a starting point to refine, not a finished mark.
Lock the name (and validate the idea) before you generate a brand. Branding is downstream: validate demand
first (/sales-idea-validation), settle the name (/sales-namelix), then generate the logo/brand — never
brand a name you might still change. Because generating is free, it's a low-cost first pass, but the sequence
still holds.
Ownership ≠ a registered trademark — confirm the license, then do your own clearance. Commercial-use and
ownership terms live in Brandolia's Terms of Sale / Terms of Service, not the landing page — tell the user
to read those before relying on the mark commercially. Even with granted commercial use, an AI/library-built
mark can be non-distinctive, so run a USPTO/EUIPO search before trademarking, and treat the logo as a
placeholder you may later upgrade.
There is NO public API — don't plan a pipeline around it. If asked to "use the Brandolia API" or generate
brands in bulk from a script, be precise: it's entirely a human-in-the-loop UI tool — no REST endpoints,
no webhooks, no Zapier/Make, no MCP, and no developer docs. For programmatic logo/image generation at volume,
use an image-generation service with a documented API.
If you discover a gotcha or tip not in references/learnings.md, append it there with today's date.
Gotchas
Best-effort from research (2026-07) — features, tiers, tokens, and formats move; verify at brandolia.io.
The free tier previews but CANNOT download. Generating/previewing is free; exporting the files is gated to
paid tiers and spends tokens. Users hit this wall after they've already made a logo they like.
It's token-based, and token mechanics aren't documented. Reported allowances are Free 3 / Basic 25 /
Standard 50 / Premium 100, but what one token buys and whether tokens reset or roll over is unclear —
confirm on the live site; don't assert it.
Download formats are unconfirmed — do NOT promise SVG/vector. "Downloadable branding kits" is advertised,
but the exact formats (PNG/JPG vs vector SVG/PDF/EPS) aren't public. Verify before relying on it for print, or
use a peer with confirmed vector export.
Pricing is best-effort and shown in multiple currencies. Reported ~$10.70–12.90 (Basic) / ~$15.99–19.99
(Standard) / ~$39.92–49.92 (Premium) per month — the odd figures suggest currency conversion; confirm your
local price at brandolia.io.
It's a young indie tool (Show HN, 2025). Features (website builder, visual generator) are newer and evolving;
expect the product and pricing to shift, and confirm current behavior rather than trusting a cached description.
Ownership terms are in the legal docs, not the homepage — and ownership ≠ a registered trademark. Read the
Terms of Sale/Service and run a USPTO/EUIPO clearance before trademarking.
There is NO public API, webhooks, Zapier/Make, or MCP. UI-only; brand/logo generation can't be scripted.
For volume, use an image-generation API instead.

Examples
Example 1: "Is Brandolia free, and why can't I download my logo?"
User says: "I made a logo I like in Brandolia but it won't let me download it. Is it actually free?"
Skill does: Explains Brandolia is freemium — generating and previewing is free, but the free tier can't
download; exporting files is gated to paid tiers and spends tokens (Free 3 / Basic 25 / Standard 50 /
Premium 100). Tells the user they'll need a paid tier to export, flags that what a token buys and whether tokens
reset/roll over isn't documented, and that all pricing is best-effort — confirm at brandolia.io.
Result: The founder understands the paywall is on download, not generation, and picks a tier knowingly.
Example 2: "I need a vector SVG of my Brandolia logo for print" (limitation/uncertainty)
User says: "My printer needs a vector SVG. Can I export SVG from Brandolia?"
Skill does: States honestly that Brandolia's exact download formats aren't documented publicly — it does
not promise SVG/vector and does not assume PNG-only. Gives two safe paths: (a) verify the actual export
on the live site before committing a print job, or (b) use a peer with confirmed vector output
(/sales-mojomox, /sales-logoai, /sales-logomaster, /sales-zoviz, /sales-brandmark). Recommends (b) when
print fidelity matters and the export is unverified.
Result: The user doesn't bet a print job on an unverified format and has a reliable fallback.
Example 3: "Can I use the Brandolia API to generate 200 brand kits?" (developer/automation)
User says: "How do I call the Brandolia API to auto-generate logos and brand kits for 200 store names?"
Skill does: States that Brandolia has no public API — it's entirely a UI tool with no REST
endpoints, webhooks, Zapier/Make, or MCP, and no developer docs — so generation cannot be scripted. Suggests
an image-generation service with a documented API for programmatic logo generation at volume. Does not invent
endpoints.
Result: The user avoids building on a nonexistent API and picks a workable path.
Troubleshooting
"It won't let me download my logo — I thought it was free"
Symptom: Generating the logo worked, but downloading is blocked.
Cause: Brandolia is freemium — the free tier previews only and cannot download. Exporting files is
gated to paid tiers and spends tokens.
Solution: Upgrade to a paid tier to export. Confirm current tiers, prices, and token mechanics at
brandolia.io — pricing and token rules aren't fully documented and change often.
"What file formats do I actually get — is there an SVG?"
Symptom: Unsure whether the download includes a scalable vector file.
Cause: Brandolia advertises "downloadable branding kits" but doesn't document the exact formats (PNG/JPG
vs vector SVG/PDF/EPS) publicly.
Solution: Verify the export on the live site before relying on it — especially for print/large-format. If you
need guaranteed vector, use a peer with confirmed SVG export (Mojomox/LogoAI/etc.).
"Is there an API to generate brand kits in bulk?"
Symptom: Can't find API docs to script logo/brand-kit creation.
Cause: Brandolia is UI-only — there are no REST endpoints, webhooks, Zapier/Make, or MCP, and no
developer documentation.
Solution: Don't build a bulk-generation pipeline on it. For programmatic logo/image generation, use an
image-generation service with a documented API. Reserve Brandolia for interactive, one-off brand creation.
